BROOKLYN, N.Y. -- Jerome Robinson was drafted by the Los Angeles Clippers in the first round of the 2018 NBA Draft, held at the Barclays Center on Thursday night. Robinson was the 13th overall pick.
Robinson becomes Boston College's first-ever "lottery pick," selected among the first 14 picks of the NBA Draft. The NBA Draft lottery process began in 1985. He is the highest BC Eagle drafted into the NBA since John Bagley was the 12th overall pick by the Cleveland Cavaliers in 1983. Additionally, Robinson becomes the 10th player in BC history to be drafted in the first round - and the first since 2011 (Reggie Jackson, 22nd, Oklahoma City).
